05/09 Round Valley Regional Preserve



Eleven of us made the approx 4.75 mile loop up Hardy Canyon with lunch just over the saddle overlooking Round Valley and Murphy Meadow, then down and back along Miwok Tr.  The lead group took a single track trail for part of the way back to the cars rather than the old farm road. Shirley said there was approximately 800 feet elevation gain, but Google Earth says the gain/loss is over 1200 feet. My legs vote for the GE figure. 

The grass is drying quickly and flowers were fewer than we have seen when we have visited earlier in the year. But it was a lovely sunny day with  a good breeze in exposed areas and we all had a good time.
